A solid business, but screening 39% overvalued on our models.

What matters now

  • The price sits above even our optimistic bull case (100.93 TWD). The favourable scenario is already priced in.
  • Solid but not exceptional quality (63/100) and above fair value, neither a clear bargain nor a standout compounder.
  • A fairly wide model range (51.20 TWD to 100.93 TWD) leaves room in how you read the outcome.

Analysis

United Microelectronics Corporation (2303) currently trades at 121.00 TWD, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is 74.41 TWD, implying the stock looks roughly 38.5% overvalued today. The Quality Score stands at 63/100 (solid quality), in the Technology sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).

Over the trailing twelve months, United Microelectronics Corporation generated revenue of 241B TWD at a net margin of 20.8%. Revenue grew 5.5% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 12.5%. The balance sheet holds a net cash position of 50.9B TWD. Fundamentals as of Aug 13, 2026

Our scenario range runs from 51.20 TWD (bear case) to 100.93 TWD (bull case); at 121.00 TWD, the current price sits above that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 22% below its 52-week high and 202% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Technology peers we cover trades at -54% fair-value upside, at -39%, 2303 screens cheaper than that median.

Fair Value models

Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.

Model Bear Bear = the cautious scenario: the same model computed with conservative anchors (lower growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bull it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target.BaseBull Bull = the optimistic scenario: the same model computed with favourable anchors (higher growth, margins and valuation multiples). Together with Bear it frames a plausible valuation range, not a price target. Evidence
